Comment (by ocean90):

 After removing all my transients and a new theme switch the old widgets
 automatically go into the new sidebars now.
 Also 2011 has 5 sidebars, 2010 has 6. So what should happen with the
 widgets from the sixth sidebar after a switch from 2010 to 2011?

 Maybe you can ping me in IRC?
